Tips & Advice

How often does the transmission fluid need to be changed?

Around the 30,000 mile mark is a good time to change your transmission fluid. If your vehicle is driven hard or used to tow or pull trailers, the added strain on the transmission might mean checking and/or changing the fluid more frequently is a good idea, sometimes as often every 15,000 miles. Consult your owner’s manual to find the suggested mileage range for transmission fluid changes. If your transmission is having issues, check the fluid yourself, or get to a professional who can – you may need to top off the fluid or change it--especially if the care has broken down and has a burning smell.

What is the difference between an automatic and manual transmission?

An automatic transmission is one you put in drive and it shifts through the gears automatically. In a manual transmission you push down on a clutch (usually the far left pedal) and shift gears manually. Many manufacturers have completely phased out the manual transmission.

How much does it cost to replace a car transmission?

It can cost anywhere from $2,000-$3,500 (give or take) to replace a transmission; a used/salvagecan cost anywhere from $800-$1500; rebuilt can cost anywhere from $1,000-$6,000. What determines that amount depends on several factors. First, what type of vehicle is it: a small passenger vehicle, a large truck or a Porsche? What kind of rates is your mechanic charging? Do you have warranty coverage or protection? These variables will determine what you’ll be paying. Once you find a good mechanic, discuss your options. Before you go in, do some research to have an idea of what to expect. If you have a car with an expired warranty, you can buy aftermarket warranties for most cars.

How much does it cost to repair a car transmission?

Different problems and the severity of any damage to your transmission will determine the costs. If you are low on fluid and just need a service, you can get out for around $100. More severe problems, like a bad torque converter or broken gear, could mean removal or disassembly of the transmission, which can cost serious money. In some cases, transmission replacement might be a better option than removing, repairing, or replacing. You can find new, used, and rebuilt transmissions for nearly any car, which might be cheaper than a very expensive repair.

What is a slipping transmission?

A slipping transmission is when you put your foot on the gas to accelerate, and there is a noticeable delay or hesitation before the transmission kicks in. This can be due to low transmission fluid or other conditions. Low fluid pressure is a prime culprit in slipping transmissions, but can also be a symptom of other problems, depending on the type of transmission.

What are the signs of transmission problems?

The primary signs of transmission problems include lack of response (transmission slipping), gear grinding, burning smell (the fluid may be too hot and burning), clunking when putting the transmission into gear, rough or difficult shifting, or a dashboard warning light coming on to tell you something is wrong. Most of these are basic common sense--meaning you will clearly notice the warning signs as they are pretty obvious.

What are the primary components of a car transmission?

The primary components of transmissions are planetary gear sets, torque converters, the hydraulic system, and electronics. Also, the transmission is filled with fluid. Manual transmissions have a clutch and all associated parts. The gears are what the driver will notice the most. The drive shaft exits the transmission to the axles or wheels to deliver the power.

What does a car transmission do?

A transmission transfers the engine’s horsepower to the wheels. The engine produces power, which is fed to the transmission, and the power is transmitted to the axles through a series of gears. Larger gears (like first and second) are designed for lower-end torque and power, like accelerating from a stop. Higher gears like fifth (and sixth or seventh on higher-end cars) are smaller and designed for top-end speed--when you no longer need low-end torque. Transmissions can be either manual (you use a clutch and manually shift) or automatic (put it in gear and go).

POSTED : 07/01/2013STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS / SHADE TREE MECHANICS!!!They underbid everyone to get my business and every time i took it back for a concern with the transmission they did another $500 worth of unauthorized work and never called me for prior approval. I just took it back again because the car was still acting up and explained my daughter will be driving to college in the fall and wanted to make sure it was fixed beforehand so she would be safe. They kept the car a week and drove it over 139 miles and tried to up sale me again saying the transmission was fine. On top of it all I asked them for the specifics of the warranty and Darrell store manager replied, did we give a warranty on this work?I know the owner personally and didn’t make a difference. The store manager Darrell is the biggest crook of them all. That’s why they hired him to up sale everyone.I will be filing a BBB complaint and take the car to a more reputable transmission shop.Just found out that they are NOT accredited by the BBB!!!DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY AWAY FROM THESE GUYS!!!

A Google User6 years agoThis is a fantastic shop! If you own a Toyota or Lexus and live in the Denver Metro area, this is where you need to bring your vehicle. All they work on is Toyota vehicles. I have been a customer for many years and they are very honest and they do great work.

I worked with this company for a transmission on one of our trucks. I personally drove the transmission to them with the help of other coworkers. When i first pulled up there attitudes weren't pleasant at all. Our company spent a lot of money to have them fix it. In doing so they ended up messing it up to where we couldn't get it back into the spot correctly. We called multiple times to try and get someone to come help us concidering they were they ones who messed it up when rebuilding it. When they came they had attitudes once again. After weeks of being without our truck we finally had it installed. They knew there could be a problem so they signed out receipt for a warranty. Not even 2 months later it broke down all the way out in Colorado springs. Our drivers were stuck out there and we had to pay a tow truck and also go get the stranded coworkers. Our customers were devastated. How do you tell your customer that your stuff and truck is stranded in Colorado Springs? We took a huge hit for this. We then contacted this company to honor their warranty they signed agreeing to and they didnt. They still will not honor it and our truck is still down simply because of the transmission. We have lost so so so much money because of this. I don't usually like to write things like this but it is the truth and has effected not only me, but the company I work for, their families, and our customers. Everyone beware. I would not want anyone to break down and feel stranded and not even have someone keep to the word when the mistake was theirs to begin with. We weren't asking for refunds or reimbursement for all the money we have lost. Just to simply fix the issue that they created to begin with. If I were you, I would look for a different company with morals and values and also know how to do the job that they were paid to do.

Our company used them to replace one of our transmissions. When a couple of guys went to get the transmission one of the employees had dropped our new transmission before they even got it off the lot. After a few months the transmission started to lock up and then would not shift into anything other than first and reverse. We contacted them to have them warranty the transmission but they said they would not uphold their end and still have not do not use them.

We used these guys to get us a new transmission for one of our trucks, a few months passed and everything was fine then the transmission started to have a few problems and the transmission wouldnt go into any gear higher than the first gear. We have been working to have our warrenty renewed and they have been fighting us and still havent helped us with this. Do not do any work with these guys.

What a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! these CROOKS lured us in with the promises of low cost and good work. They LIED from the start. Charged over TWICE the bid and took 3 weeks to do a fix that DIDNT LAST 2 MONTHS. WILL NOT FIX IT OR HONOR THE WARRANTY at all. Go somewhere else.

This place was terrible they lied from the start the underbid the job wound up charging over $2500 for a job the bid at $1200 in just over 30 days the transmission died again and they have since refused to live up to their warranty and blown us off for over two months. avoid this place at all costs.
